- I went travelling around Thailand for one month in January 2022.
In this second half I head to the south, starting in Khao Sok National Park and then visiting Khao Sok Elephant Sanctuary.
Then we went to Krabi and stayed in Ao Nang and then Railay Beach.
In Koh Phi Phi we got to see the recently re-opened Maya Bay made famous from The Beach,
Then my journey finished with a few nights in Koh Lanta.
Also joining me in Koh Phi Phi was my good friend @PaddyDoyle.

Which place did you guys like the look of the most?
Just a reminder, this trip was in January 2022 when we had to run the gauntlet of the Thailand Pass Test & Go scheme.
As of July 2022 all these rules are gone, so this is a unique document of a strange and weird time of travelling, that wasn’t without its rewards though!
Big shout out also to Paddy, check out this Thailand and Vietnam adventures here:

Koh Lanta looks amazing! Loved the vibe there...
This did southern Thailand justice. Incredible footage! Made my eyes water a few times. I really liked the shots on Koh Phi Phi
Going there in Oct. For 3 months. So excited.
Thank you for sharing. Great work!
There's nothing like a karl watson travel documentary, one of the most unique and well crafted channels out there. You've got a great sense of personality and humor as well as some great cinematography and editing expertise. Well done as always man 👏
@@redshift40 enjoy your trip :)
@@blockedhaat thanks very much! :)
As a Filipino, i still think Thailand is the most beautiful country in Asia.
I am so grateful to your kindest words.❤ Thank you Thank you Thank you.
I myself is in awe of Lambalok also. Out of this world beauty.
Palawan is one of thé most beautyful in thé World also
Indonesia more
My Filipino friend is so humble. Philipines own countless of amazing pristine islands and beaches. 👍😘
ฟิลิปินส์ก็สวยไม่แพ้กัน คนฟิลิปินส์ก็ใจดี เป็นมิตรเหมือนคนไทย
It just doesn't get better than Thailand ❤ Fantastic series Karl ❤
Cheers buddy 😊👍
wann wtch your epis of thai also 😍 and thks for visited Srilanka
Especially after your Vietnam trip right? Sorry you had a bad southern experience. Stay safe and cool!
Good to see you two together
You dudes have both turnt it up this year! Good form. 👍🏽
I love Thailand 🇹🇭
My hometown
I want to go to Thailand!!!
Welcome to Thailand 🇹🇭😘
I stayed in Koh Sok for the overnight experience. I got bitten by a spider in the face, a bat was hanging from the top of my hut in the middle of the night and a monkey kept me awake all night. 🤣 Still worth it tho.
You missed out on one of the best view points in thailand by not climbing the rope in railay beach and also the hidden lagoon which is one of the most beautiful things I saw there. You should look it up. You will have to go back again. Thailand revisited revisited
Good to know for next time 😊
The spider on the face can fuck right off!
where is the hidden lagoon please? :)
Khao Sok and Railay Beach are some of my favourite places in Thailand! So amazing!
Karl - Thailand is now on my bucket list! ⛱️🐘🍜🇹🇭😍 Loved this series, thanks for sharing the lows and the highs of travel and taking us along for the ride. Can't wait for the next series 🍻
This must be one of the best all in Thailand "vlog" , can't call it a vlog, it's better than that. I had the pleasure of seeing much of the places you visit in the south just a week before you did. The whole covid situation didn't bother me much, it was a good experience to see Thailand so quit but for the locals I hope they survived the pandemic. I'm going back to Thailand at the end of this month for my 9th trip to Thailand and I've already booked for march next year for my 10th visit to show friends around this amazing country!
Thank you Karl for this amazing video, you did Thailand amazing justice.
Thanks very much 😊
After travelling for 4 months I got somewhat numb to the beauty that I came across on my trip. Sailing into Khao Sok however gave me this "omg this is breathtaking" moments again. Such a beautiful place. If you ever can, do the overnight stay, it's bloody amazing!
Khao Sok is just a Paradise on earth .... WoW
Wow, that was awesome. I was totally immersed from start to finish. Probably the best video travel blog I ever saw. Superb job mate. I was in my own little world throughout that. What a place too. I'd do anything to get myself over there to experience that beautiful and awesome scenery. It really is heaven on earth.
GOAT level documentary making as always. I feel like there's unfinished Karl Tour business in Thailand. It's such a ridiculously amazing and diverse country and given how it panned out here, my advise would be to get planning an even more epic tour ASAP! Chang Mai/Rai anyone?
I really appreciate the long-form content. Something different in the TH-cam travel space. Great job, Karl!
soooooo nice! can't wait anymore! in december we are finally back again in thaialnd! thanks for the video!!!!
I remember watching your first Thailand series the first time I went in 2017. So cool to watch another when I'm planning my trip there this October. And you definitely sold me on Koh Lanta! You capture the vibes of southeast asia in such an incredible way!
So stoked to watch you make another series in Thailand, Karl. This is such a huge treat.
Cheers 😊
Man i miss this part of the world. Some of the best memories ever that i semi drunkenly forgotten cuz of all the wild times. Good days!
Khao Sok National Park is one of the most beautiful destinations in Thailand. Because of the 2 day tour where you go deep into the ancient jungle and where you have the opportunity to stay in a unique location, this park is great to visit.
Love this! ❤We're heading to Thailand next year. Can't wait!! I'm so looking forward to watching your Antarctica Trip. 🤩
100% Agree ~ Koh Lanta is magic!
I’ve been following all your travels since the start of HK2NY and I have been saying ever since that your editing skills is by far the best on TH-cam as far as I’m concerned and this edit is absolutely brilliant - well done 👏🏻
Cheers mate :)
How does this not have a million likes? How do you not have millions of subscribers? This was put together better than any TV program I’ve seen! Excellent job! New sub, can’t wait to go!
Thanks very much 😊
I'm Thai and now I'm live in Suratthani . I love this video so much and thank you for coming. Thailand welcomes you and your group.🥰
Incredible journey Karl! Amazing editing and story telling! Loved it and Koh Lanta always been on top of my list and sure enough it remains!
Thank you 😊
Sabrina 🇫🇷🇬🇧
Nice content, beautiful views, different places, energetic tempo and not too long.
Thank you so much for highlighting that bathing Elephants is not a good thing to do! I was last in Thailand in 2019 and made a point of properly researching and getting trusted recommendations for an ethical sanctuary, as I know you have to be so careful with animal tourism to make sure the animals aren't being exploited or hurt in anyway. I had absolutely no idea that bathing was bad, and unfortunately it is something I participated in as I didn't know any better. :( I'll be going back to Thailand for a couple of months towards the end of this year, so very grateful for the new knowledge so me and other backpackers can make sure we're supporting the right places and no Elephants are being mistreated!
Reminds me of the Philippines vid with the awful whale shark feeding. Hope they stopped that.
I really appreciate your insight about ethical practices around elephants! For people that want to be very thoughtful about which sanctuaries to visit, which ones in Thailand would you recommend that are ethical? Would be really grateful for your advice! Thank you so much :)
Just stunning!
We're days away from heading to Thailand for the first time. So excited!!!
Welcome to Thailand i from Thailand love you
Another GREAT series! KW is da man!
Koh Lanta looks incredible. Definitely added to the itinerary!
Karl, I never watch videos for 50+ minutes unless it's educational or training for my business. My man, I've watched four of your long and entertaining videos (3 of Vietnam because we visited there in 2018). You are a pro dude. I cast your videos from my phone to my TV set and relax on my sofa and enjoy. Kudos man...kudos!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks very much! Just how they should be watched 😉👍
I have just smiled right through this video. I have been once to thailand in 2010 for 3 weeks, its the most amazing place i have ever been and would love to go back someday.
Great job with this vlog Karl!!! Loved every minute of this and will def use this for inspo for my Thai trip. Shoutout Walid, brought a lot of charisma to this ep 🙌
great as always i love krabi & phi phi i was there in 2019
Fantastic series looking forward to more Thailand / Asia series
Awesome to watch this channel .
so good to see both episodes karl ..despite the setback you pulled it around and had a great time .!!
Thanks 😊
Can’t wait to watch this later.
I love the Maya sence, this is incredibly beautiful❤.
There's just something about Thailand I've been there three times and keeps you wanting to go back for more. It's the gateway to backpacker style travel and I love that. On a serious note where's James 😄
Bristol 😉
I had so much fun watching this
Wow! What a beautiful video. Going for the first time in April. Can’t wait!
Absolutely wonderful trip, very well organized(even in crazy covid times)... those islands are wonders.... keep up the good work.. will definitely join you in one of such trips.
Heading there next month. Thanks for the update 🙏
Railey looks amazing! Thanks for a great video!
Worth the wait Karl 💚❤️💚❤️
Great job with the video! The elephant section was really interesting and good to have some insight into how things are (hopefully) changing!
Really enjoyed your vlog soon I will head to all this spots hats off for the lovely information
Absolutely love your films!! You inspire me. Really like that they are an hour long, I can settle in and absorb. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing beautiful views.
This is the best travel blog I've seen in a long while! 👏🏾
ผมเป็นคนไทย ผมดีใจมากที่เห็นพวกคุณทั้งหมดเที่ยวอย่างมีความสุข หวังว่าพวกคุณจะกลับมาเที่ยวอีกนะ❤
Really loved Koh Lanta and Khao Sok when I visited at the start of 2020! Railay Beach looks amazing, will have to visit in the future :)
THE BEST. Thank you.
I'm so grateful for this video because I could explore more spots in Thailand. Keep it up!
Great series carl amazing footage like always keep up the good work..look forward to the next series 👍
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO
That was awesome! THANK YOU 😎🤩
All i can say.. amazing and great great video brother! Loved every single second of it!!
Thanks 😊
Loved it, especially the drone shots, beautiful x
Nice trip, amazing experience. Excellent combination ❤️ love it.
Wow Karl you killed it with this one, never fancied Maya Beach before but it’s looks worth the trip now
Very nice ep 2. Thank for sharing our country to the world. We are ready to welcome tourist to visit our country.🎉🎉 cheers from BKK Thailand.
What better way to spend my flight delay then catching up on the new documentary!
Look amazing place
Nice for exsploring
Great videos. Shame about your quarantine but you still had a great time. Thailand is the best place👍👍
I was blessed to experience most of your trip on my 50th b day. 3 months of unforgettable adventures. Thank you for your gorgeous filming. Thailand was uncrowded and easy to explore, twenty years ago. And she is uncrowded again during the gov lockdowns. 💜
I'm happy the elephants are finally being treated with compassion 💕
ยินดีต้อนรับนักท่องเที่ยว
very much enjoyed this time that you shared, thank you
Amazing thank you!
Wowwww, thank you for making this video.
Super cool Carl. Nice to see you traveling again.
I forgot to mention that I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!
Welcome to Thailand 🇹🇭
love the videos, love the country. can't wait to get back 😀
Epic video. Sucks you had to quarantine. Beautiful drone footage. Gorgeous footage. Thank you for sharing. Happy Sunday
Your Maya Bay daytrip in 2013 looked like it was on the Shangri-La, that was one of the best experiences ever!!!
It was, soooo much fun 👍
Wow❤️❤️❤️ this is a very fun vids to watch. I enjoy watching all fifty minutes.
Just started watching the episode.. and wanted to say Huge Thank You for bringing up the elephants riding and the whole tourist entertainment subject. Hopefully, today someone realized , like you did a few years back, how unethical it’s! ❣️
Great episode!
Great Video!! Funny enough my trip started near the same time and I visited most of the same places. This was a great way to reminisce. As for the ending I absolutely agree, something was telling me it was just time to go so we went. I think it was the perfect time to go. All the tourists were gone and the the Thais were so happy to have us and all the experiences were just that much more special without the crowds. It is something we may never be able to experience again and so happy to see others get to enjoy Thailand like I did!!
💖🙏🏻
i just got back from thailand and now want to back even more
Amazing video Karl.THank you.. Going for 2nd time Feb 2024. Your Video has got us excited. Amazing work with the drone x x
Legend!!
Hey Karl we've been in Thailand in 2020 before Corona, and it was amazing. I will upload our video soon, just started our channel :)
Ya best yet 👌both of them ! Well done 👏
Met some great people at Railay.
It really was the standout place for me.
The music is great.
ขอบคุณค่ะ ที่มาเที่ยวเมืองไทย
Hi Karl, just finished watching Ep1 and Ep2 in Thailand. Thanks for such an outstanding video tracking through this remarkable country. Good leg action in these too! Ha!!!😉
Maya bay in PP island is Paradise on the Earth.
I hope you come back to the PHILOPPINES we missed you here
I keep re-watching this video and then go to like again...they need a re-like button. :) Fabulous.
We pretty much did the same, Ao Nang - Phi Phi - Lanta route so this was so nostalgic 😭
Probably the best video from this point. Really exciting, peaceful, and very very attractive. I wanna be there. Thank You
This has been a great series.
Whoah, Kash and Sabrina sighting, had some drinks with those cool cats in Luang Prabang just before the pandemic.
Great series Karl
So happy I found your channel! Your documentary videos are just great! ❤ Would love to join you in one of your group trips. Keep up the good work! 👌👍
Looks another belter Karl my mate! My Thursday night sorted 🍻
